StudySync 6–8: A Comprehensive Middle School ELA Curriculum

Bring Literature to Life for Every Learner

At Grades 6–8, instruction is focused on strong skills- and standards-based instruction that will provide the foundation for success in high school and beyond while still affording teachers the flexibility to customize the curriculum to the specific needs of their students and teaching style. Every day, students interact with high-quality classic and contemporary literature that’s rigorous, culturally relevant, and presented in a highly engaging digital format. 

StudySync:

  • Includes six units per grade for 180 days of integrated reading, writing, listening, and speaking instruction.
  • Features a continuously growing library of over 2000 classic and contemporary texts.
  • Supports interchangeable print and digital use.
  • Enhances instruction with rich multimedia and digital tools.
  • Automatically embeds scaffolds, so ALL students reach their potential.

Components for StudySync 6–8

StudySync’s print and digital resources are designed to be used interchangeably for teachers and students in all types of classrooms. The print materials support the digital platform so that teachers and students can switch seamlessly between individual devices, shared devices, or device-free structures depending on levels of access and the needs of students.

Student Digital Subscription

In the StudySync digital student platform, 6–8 students can access assignments, view completed work in their binder, and search the StudySync digital library of texts. When students log in, they see assignments that have yet to be completed. When students choose an assignment, they have automatic access to any scaffolds or graphic organizers associated with that lesson.
